Hi Anna! Love your blog...completely inspired by your farm life photos...I almost made my hubby stop the car yesterday to take pictures of the bluebells! Thanks for sharing the info about your lenses & cameras!

Anna- I just love your blog! You inspire so many people! You'r photo's are amazing and I can't wait to see what's new everyday! We love looking at your farm life stuff, Thanks for sharing with us all! Christine

Thank you so much for your camera information. I JUST purchased a Nikon SLR and 2 lenses and am overwelmed. There are so many bells and whistles. I enjoy opening your blog everyday to see your new pics. Your candy blog sounds fantastic and good luck to all. Today is a bittersweet holiday, everyone say an extra prayer for our troups and servicemen everywhere. BARB

What a great way to end this wonderful weekend! Your photographs are amazing! Thanks for sharing all that you do. I've been wanting to get a digital camera for a long time. You are my inspiration! Peace be with you and your family.

What can I say about your cards that you haven't heard already? Nothing They are wonderful little pieces of art & I enjoy your creations so much. Your photography just takes my breath away! I sit & sit & sit looking at your pictures just soaking up all the colors, light, etc. When you posted about the passing of your cat, I was sad, because through your pictures, I had a sense of knowing what he was like. Have a wonderful weekend!

As a Canadian, I can't join in to celebrate
your Memorial Day weekend. But I can remember what it means to have pride in our
veterans and stand behind our soldiers who
face the same daily routines as their U.S.
counterparts. I can also appreciate your
blog with its wonderful photographs and your
interesting information about your camera.
I too love photography and you make me want to take up my camera again with the same passion I used to have. Thank you.

Love your Toad pictures! I Toad-a-ly understand the need to get a picture before getting the eggs!
Thanks for the info about your camera...I will make sure to check back when I save my pennies! Hmmm..maybe thats whats in the candy box??? LOL
have a nice long weekend...it's not a long one up here in Canada! :-(

Hi - I hope that everyone is having a wonderful weekend! I'm just back from a very "magical" Disney World trip with my 4 yr old granddaughter. I've done some stampin' and resting and life is GOOD!

Love your shots! I haven't progressed to a digital SLR yet...but just purchased a Canon Powershot S3 IS in March and I love learning more advanced photography. This is my first post to a blog, so I guess you're a first also! Happy Memorial Day to you and I'm hoping to be lucky.

I really enjoy your blog -- I check it almost daily. And your webstore -- great! It is memorial weekend and I am hitting the sack as tomorrow my band and I will be singing at a local fort in honor of our service men and women and our veterans. Hopefully it won't snow -- lol -- afterall this is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and last Saturday it was 32 degrees!

Just wanted to chime in and say that I've truly enjoyed reading your blog. Your photos are so beautiful and inspiring. I love the photo a day. I admit to grabbing the camera to go see what I can see - no bears going over mountains, however.

I love visiting your blog and seeing your photo of the day. You made me homesick when I saw the Mimosa flower as I'm far away from Oklahoma here in Buffalo, NY! I hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day!

I absolutely love reading your blog! I have become quite fond of the whole gang on the farm. =) Plus it makes me feel right at home. (I'm from Texas now living in Arizona)
Your photography is AMAZING and so is your work. Thanks for the inspiration. Tell Ribeye I said hello. =) He is such a cutie!!

Anna, thank you for sharing your art: stamping and photos. I love it all. Since I discovered your site, I've looked forward to stopping by daily. B.T.W., I love that caterpillar - he is both beautiful and scary at the same time.

Oh, oh, oh, I want the surprise blog candy!! As always, I love your blog Anna! You are such an inspiration in all that you do - photography, paper crafting, quilting... the list goes on and on. Thanks for sharing! ~Crystal M.

Honestly, I think you are living MY dream live. I'd love to live on a farm, I would love to have artistic talent, I would love to be a good photographer, and I'd love to be as cute (and as young!) as you! I enjoy your blog so much, and really like the farm pictures.
I would like to be a winner of the prize, but I'll come back daily even if you never give away anything but share your talents.

Surprises are so much fun! I just love your blog, there is always so much to look at, and I love all your stories. I laughed so hard about the plastic spider, I had almost the same experience with a toy snake not that long ago! Angie

What I love about your blog is that it isn't just about the crafting - you open a window into your life and let us take a peek. I enjoy the animal pictures and stories almost more than the beautiful cards you create. Right now, my rescued stray tiger cat is bumping my hand to remind me he is sending purrs for Kimberly.

I LOVE your blog. it is on my blogroll and I check it every day. you are soooooo inspiring. i love your amazing photos and your beautiful paper creations. you are a superstar. i like the others are very sorry to hear about kimberley. it is so hard to loose a pet. hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend. enjoy!!!!

It is 8:00am here in Ct & I've just spent the last 2 hours at my local vet (where I work part-time) with 9 7 week old kittens!! It is their time to run around & get exercise & it is truly a sight when they get going!! This is a small country vet housed in a 1750 antique home & it was a great start to my Memorial Day weekend!! Hope yours is just as fun Anna!!

Your blog is so wonderful, I love the photos of all the animals, you are really such a talented photographer. I also love all your images you make for whipper snapper. I am lucky enough to live close to a store that specializes in them. I can't wait to see what you do next!

We are in the frog/toad lover's group, too. We have a bullfrog in our pond that "barks" at us every once in a while. He often jumps into our neighbor's pond, which annoys us, since he's ours. Doesn't he know that??? Have a great weekend, and thanks for sharing your talents with us!

A long weekend. Isn't that great! I plan on doing nothing! How about you? OK, I probably will start planting some veggies and taking the cats for a stroll. Have a safe and happy weekend.
P.S. I just read the post about Kimberly and I am terribly sorry. She had a long good life.

Being in Canada, our long weekend was last weekend. So while you guys enjoy your holiday Monday, think of all us Canadians working up North.
I really enjoy reading your blog and your pictures are always a joy to see.

I love your blog,your photo's are great, I'm almost inspired enough to try the "photo a day", and see if I can improve my picture taking skills, and find joy in everyday, by really looking at all we have been given. Would love to win your "goodies"
Thanks for sharing everything!

I love your blog and check it daily!!!! I love the stamps with the birds the best (I think) although it is hard to narrow it down. The photography is also fun to look at. Thanks for the shot at blog candy!
